play CHORUS chords over solo and when frank comes back in with falsetto.
end on G#m
_________________________________________________________________________
*i think this chord is Emaj7, just in the chorus
you can play it like: or: or maybe:
e--0----------------------0---------0---
b--0----------------------9---------0---
g--8----------------------8---------8---
d--9----------------------9---------6---
a--7----------------------7---------7---
e--0----------------------0---------0---
hell wont freeze over if you play it differently than frank does.
so, improvise, take your pick. play a C for all i care, although
it would sound terrible. very bad.
the piano is definitely playing Emaj7. if you just wanna play:
a--2--
e--0--
that's cool too.
